The Probiotic Study: Using Bacteria to Calm Your Mind

The investigators will use Culturelle®, a probiotic composed of the micro-organisms Lactobacillus GG. This formulation has been used for the treatment of gastrointestinal inflammation in numerous clinical trials. Dosing will follow the manufacturer's recommendation for children (1 capsule/packet per day), and will be monitored by the study Co-PI, Dr. Seed. Weekly side effects and clinical changes will be monitored by both study therapist and caregiver using the Children's Global Assessment Scale and the Clinical Global Impression Scale (Severity, Improvement, and Efficacy). The treatment duration is 30 days.
